I am an Igqirha (Traditional Health Practitioner, also called Sangoma), specializing in holistic healthcare services such as traditional herbal remedies, plant spirit medicine, and energy healing. Trained for eight years under the guidance of Zanemvula (Peter von Maltitz), a renowned healer from Muizenberg, Cape Town, I am deeply passionate about bioregional plants and the traditional use of South African flora. My practice blends African herbal remedies, intuitive energetic healing, and ancestral wisdom to nurture health and harmony.
I am not only a healer for people but also a spirit helper, working to restore natural places and relocate wayward energies. As a Reiki Master Teacher and spiritual guidance counsellor, I believe in nurturing the body rather than battling against it, focusing on growth and balance rather than outcomes.

Traditional Healing
What is traditional healing?
Traditional healing is a profound and transformative journey that honors the entirety of your being—mind, body, spirit, and soul! It is a practice rooted in the belief that every part of you, whether bathed in light or cloaked in shadow, holds equal value and significance. Nothing is overlooked, nothing is dismissed. I am deeply committed to supporting your body’s natural ability to heal itself, working in harmony with the wisdom of the earth. Through the power of traditional herbs and the ancient art of energy medicine, I help to restore balance, vitality, and harmony to both your physical and emotional well-being.
But the healing doesn’t stop with you—it extends to the spaces you inhabit. Your home and land are sacred reflections of your inner world, and I use powerful clearing ceremonies to cleanse and revitalize these spaces, infusing them with a radiant, luminous energy. Imagine stepping into your own personal Eden—a sanctuary of beauty, serenity, and profound connection. A place where you feel deeply rooted, at peace, and in tune with the rhythms of the earth.
My ultimate mission is to guide you back to the essence of who you are—to help you rediscover the fiery spark within and the radiant light that illuminates this breathtaking world. Traditional healing is not just about fixing what’s broken; it’s about awakening to the fullness of life, reconnecting with your inner power, and embracing the magic of existence. Together, we embark on a journey to reignite your spirit and reclaim the joy, wonder, and vitality that are your birthright!
Consultations
In my consultations, I use the technique of intuitive dowsing to uncover the root causes of imbalance and craft a session uniquely tailored to your specific goals and needs. By assessing your physical body, your spirit body, and your environment, I take a holistic approach to healing and growth, ensuring that every aspect of your being is nurtured and aligned. If you feel called to explore deeper, I also offer bone or Rune readings, which can reveal powerful patterns and themes in your life. These divination tools provide insight into how you’re navigating challenges, recurring issues, your spiritual health, and even the deeper questions you may be seeking answers to.
Beyond individual sessions, I offer land and home clearing services to harmonize and purify your living spaces, creating an environment that supports your well-being on every level. Whether it’s clearing stagnant energy from your home or blessing a piece of land, these services are designed to bring balance and vitality to the spaces you inhabit. I also provide personalized space clearing to help you create a sanctuary that feels nurturing and aligned with your energy.
For those experiencing significant life transitions or seeking personal growth, I design individualized ceremonies for rites of passage and personal development. These ceremonies are crafted with intention and care, honoring milestones such as births, marriages, career shifts, or spiritual awakenings. They serve as powerful markers on your journey, helping you step into new phases of life with clarity, purpose, and celebration.
One of the most rewarding parts of my work is witnessing the profound shifts that can occur in just a few sessions. I love showing people how small, intentional changes can lead to enormous improvements in their overall well-being. To help you maintain momentum and continue your progress, I recommend follow-up sessions. These provide ongoing support, guidance, and insight as you move forward on your path toward balance, growth, and transformation. Together, we can explore what arises, celebrate your progress, and navigate any new challenges with clarity and confidence.
My goal is to empower you to live a life that feels vibrant, aligned, and deeply connected to your true self. Whether through intuitive dowsing, space clearing, or personalized ceremonies, I am here to support you every step of the way.
Mobile Apothecary
Over the last few years, I have dedicated my energy to building up a comprehensive supply of herbal medicines, carefully sourcing and crafting remedies from a wide variety of medicinal plants, many of which are gathered from the local mountains. To make these healing tools more accessible, I’ve created a mobile apothecary using my van, allowing me to carry my herbal medicines far and wide, bringing the magic of plant medicine directly to those who need it.
I offer a diverse range of herbal mixes tailored to address various ailments, but I also believe in the joy and vitality that plant medicine can bring to everyday life. It’s not just a tool for illness—it’s a way to enhance and celebrate life. With this in mind, I’ve blended all my herbal preparations with honeybush, giving them a naturally sweet and delightful flavor. This way, taking your medicine becomes a pleasurable and uplifting experience, reminding us to savor the beauty and magic of nature’s gifts.
Training and Mentorship
Traditional healing is a vibrant celebration of wholeness! Rooted in ancient wisdom, traditional medicine is a holistic practice guided by the timeless voices of our ancestors. Sometimes, the ancestors themselves call upon us to learn the sacred art of healing—for ourselves and for our communities. I am here to walk beside you, teaching you how to listen deeply to the land and the spirits that share this earth with us. Together, we explore powerful techniques to restore balance—not only within you but also within the land itself. My goal is to help you awaken as a person brimming with life energy (Igqriha), fully alive and radiant. This is profound, specialized training meant for those who feel the call. For those seeking a taste of this wisdom, I also offer short courses and workshops on a variety of transformative topics, including:
